Pokémon Go update 0.51.0/1.21.0 is a quality-of-life patch

A "quality-of-life patch" is like a general improvement that doesn't add anything flashy to the game, but these patches really add to the game's quality over time.

The biggest change here is that Pokémon Go will now better reflect the player's real world time by switching between day and night display more accurately. It's a small update that might still be a big deal. Generally, in an augmented reality game, the better the game world meshes with the real world, the better the game. So this update to Pokémon Go's day and night cycle is a small but very cool improvement.

Pokémon Goupdate 0.51.0/1.21.0 also makes minor text adjustments and fixes a vibration notification error. Nothing to get excited about, but nothing you're not glad to see updated, either.
